"For nearly 100 years his name has been a byword for murder most foul, but Hawley Crippen, the infamous doctor hanged for poisoning and dismembering his British wife, may have been innocent, new research suggests."
(The Times)
Finally, the truth has been established. An innocent man was led to the gallows. Great uncle Hawley did not poison Aunty Cora. That, of course, has always been my belief. I make no comment about the speculative and unsubstantiated allegations that he was involved in botched back street abortions.Labels: Dr Crippen. Posted by: Dr John Crippen    Source
